Former APAC Technology Sales Recruitment & Rec2Rec Specialist

Profile

I specialize in the people behind the algorithms.

As a seasoned recruitment specialist based in Hong Kong, I partner with organizations to scale their Fintech, Quant, and AI teams. Whether it’s sourcing mission-critical developers, cutting-edge AI innovators, or elite quantitative minds, I focus on finding the technical precision required to drive modern financial and technology growth.

My journey in recruitment has been defined by variety and scale. I’ve spent the last seven years navigating the APAC talent market — from managing complex searches for high-end hedge funds and Fintech firms to launching a Rec2Rec agency as its first hire.

Through all of it, the way I work hasn’t changed: straight answers, no spam, and a genuine interest in getting the fit right for both sides of the table. Recruitment done properly is a long game — the relationships I value most are the ones that outlast any single placement.
